My eggplant seedlings never took off so I bought a six pack of Dusky Aubergine from my local Mom and Pop nursery. They were very productive and I plan on growing them again next year. In 2009 I grew the Japanese Long Purple that were very productive. I would like to try Turkish Orange.

Thanks dixie & camp! I could only get Black Beauty transplants last spring - didn't think to order seeds in time. I'm doing like most of you - drooling over the seed catalogs and trying to decide amongst so many tempting choices! What a delightful quandary!

I just pulled my Black Beauties up, ashort. They were still blooming like heck - had gotten so big they were like small trees. I hated to pull them, but I think it has to be at least in the 60s at night for them to put on fruit. It doesn't consistently get that warm at night here now. They weren't putting on fruit any more.
